Tuned in Radio Cairo today on 11590kHz to the 2300 UTC EE broadcast..
Strong carrier S9+5dB min. Only the music portions of the broadcast
were audible. Voice audio varied betwwen whisper and zero. Finally a
female voice was audible at about 28 minutes past the hour but that
only lasted abour 10 minutes. The only thing I can figure is that they
have no meters in the studio.


I think they read this ng. As soon as I posted that message the
modulation went up. I sent a thank you and audio went out completely.
So I posted it was out again. A minute later it was back on. You can
see my post after that.


You are full of ****. They read nothing. As I stated earlier, they've had problems
for years.

All I know is I listened to the Spanish broadcast yesterday and the
modulation was perfect.

I was listening a bit today too - decent carrier and almost inaudible
modulation. No need for that.
